The ongoing ALCS between the Guardians and Rays and NLCS featuring the Brewers and Dodgers feature deep bullpens, elite starting pitching, and low-scoring tendencies that historically produce extra-inning contests in the postseason. No automatic runner on second in extras heightens the chance of marathons, as seen in prior LCS and World Series games that reached 15-plus innings. Recent Wild Card and Division Series action included multiple 10-inning decisions but few prolonged affairs, keeping trader consensus on an 11-inning maximum around 60 percent while longer thresholds trade lower. Remaining best-of-seven series, potential weather delays in outdoor venues, and bullpen usage patterns will determine whether the longest game exceeds recent norms or stays closer to regulation.
